„Drank tea a moment ago, I observed, the soldier's of defense to the adult male of acting alone especially paid attention, not only need inspect the guide, but also touched the face.” Xu Qi'an said. “刚才喝茶的时候,我观察了一下,守城的士兵对独行的成年男子尤为关注,不但要检查路引,还摸脸。”许七安道。 „Touches the face?” Royal Consort gawked, then responded, stealthy pulling down sound: „Inspection appearance changing?” “摸脸？”王妃愣了一下,然后才反应过来,鬼祟的压低声音:“检查有没有易容？” Not is stupid ........ Xu Qi'an to nod, „this is definitely not looking for you, what because was abducted by Barbarian Clan, will not act alone.” 不算笨嘛........许七安点头,“这肯定不是在找你,因为被蛮族掳走的是,绝不会独行。” No wonder he proposed suddenly must drink tea in the awning, has a rest ........ Royal Consort to be suddenly enlighted. 难怪他突然提出要在凉棚里喝茶,歇歇脚........王妃恍然大悟。 Moreover, the area like Sanhuang District, is neighboring Jiang Province, as a rule, will not become the Barbarian Clan target, then so strict questioning, is in itself unreasonable. 而且,像三黄县这样的地区,紧邻着江州,通常来说,不会成为蛮族的目标,那么如此严格的盘查,本身就不合理。 „Moreover, can see from this matter, bloody slaughter for three thousand li absolutely is not an empty talk. Otherwise the North Guarding Prince person will not so carefully treat.” Xu Qi'an sneers to say. “另外,从这件事上可以看出,血屠三千里绝对不是一句空话。不然镇北王的人不会如此谨慎对待。”许七安冷笑道。 Without the ghost, so will not dread the investigation expert in legend at heart, the invincible might such as Silver Gong Xu of prison. 心里没鬼,就不会如此忌惮传说中的破案高手,神威如狱的许银锣。 Two people looked for an inn in the city, wanted a superior room, a gate pass/test, obedient Royal Consort that displays outside acts crazy, gets angry: 两人在城中找了一家客栈,要了一个上等房间,门一关,在外表现的百依百顺的王妃发飙,怒道: „You want to occupy me to be cheap , like these amorist who in the story-telling script write. Only opens a room intentionally.” “你就是想占我便宜吧,和话本里写的那些好色之徒一样。故意只开一个房间。” The story-telling script that you read names, ......... Xu Qi'an scoffs to say with a smile taking advantage of a speech: „You , if willing to cast off bracelet, this official is glad you to spend together the spring evening with Royal Consort. As for your present appearance.” 你看的话本是叫什么名字,借一部说话.........许七安嗤笑道:“你要是肯摘掉手串,本官乐意与王妃您共度春宵。至于您现在的样子。” He referred to near the window dressing table, ridicules saying: „First looks in a mirror.” 他指了指窗边的梳妆台,揶揄道:“先照照镜子。” Doing a lot of talking of Royal Consort air/Qi, makes an effort white/in vain his eyes, is sneering rebuttal: „ Ok, that tonight's you sleep on the ground, I sleep in the bed. If you bump my you are the beast. 王妃气的磨牙,用力白他一眼,冷笑着反唇相讥:“行,那今晚你睡地我睡床。你要是碰我一下你就是禽兽。 „Ok, I must bathe, please go out.” “好了,我要沐浴了,请你出去。” So many days pass by, before her actually not like, such guarded against Xu Qi'an, know that his big probability will not bump oneself. But the inertia that proud tender the personality and quarrelled, making her very difficult live in peace together with Xu Ningyan this fellow. 这么多天过去,她其实不像之前那样防备许七安了,知道他大概率不会碰自己。但傲娇的性格和吵架的惯性,让她很难和许宁宴这个家伙和平相处。 „Tonight I do not come back, night earlier rests.” Xu Qi'an waves, turns around to get to the entrance. “今晚我不回来了,夜里早点睡。”许七安挥挥手,转身走到门口。 „Do you want to go?” The Royal Consort complexion changes. “你要去哪？”王妃脸色微变。 Although does not want to acknowledge, but this fellow truly gave her for a long time security sense, suddenly leaves, her some do not adapt, lacks self-confidence at heart. 虽然不想承认,但这家伙确实给了她许久的安全感,突然离开,她有些不适应,心里没底儿。 „Came Sanhuang District, I want to look for the three-yellow chicken.” Xu Qi'an replied. “来了三黄县,我想去找找有没有三黄鸡。”许七安回答。 Royal Consort one hear, beams with joy immediately: „I also go, I also want to eat.” 王妃一听,顿时眉开眼笑:“我也去,我也想吃。” ...... Xu Qi'an said ill-humoredly: „I go to the prostitute hall!” ......许七安没好气道:“我去妓馆！” „.......” “.......” Royal Consort sits in the bedside, spiteful being sideways, should not be excessive, gives him a back of the head. 王妃坐在床边,赌气的侧着身,别过头,给他一个后脑勺。 ............ ............ The inn to the alley of street, Xu Qi'an is staring at the inn to monitor half double-hour, has not seen tracing of suspicious person, has not seen Royal Consort stealthy sneaking off. 客栈对街的弄堂里,许七安在盯着客栈监视了半个时辰,没见到可疑人物的追踪,也没看见王妃鬼鬼祟祟的溜走。 „Unexpectedly has not run away, this is Royal Consort the brain is sick?” “居然没有逃走,这王妃是脑子有病吗？” This result makes Xu Qi'an quite accidental/surprised, in his opinion, this is the escaping chance of a lifetime. Henceforth sky is vast enough for birds to fly, sea is broad enough for fish to leap about. 这个结果让许七安颇为意外,在他看来,这是千载难逢的逃跑机会。从此天高任鸟飞,海阔凭鱼跃。 Gets out of Royal Consort this status, does not need to be worried feared becomes „medicinal herb”. 摆脱王妃这个身份,再不用担心受怕的成为“药材”。 Isn't she willing the glory, splendor, riches and honor that gives up Royal Consort this status bringing? The volume, through these days being together, she was actually more like the girl who had little experience of the world, arrogant tender willful, the body did not have the travel fatigue air/Qi. 她是不愿意放弃王妃这个身份带来的荣华富贵？额,通过这几天的相处,她其实更像是涉世未深的女孩,傲娇任性,身上没有风尘气。 Also, can the glory, splendor, riches and honor have the life to be important? 再说,荣华富贵能有命重要？ Usually mentioned the Huai Prince tone from her, did not have the sentiment to that nominal husband ........ wu, sometimes she will also be in a daze in the night, displays negatively, was the pessimistic attitude ........ despairs to the destiny that is unable to revolt against? Really is a pitiful woman. 从她平时提及淮王的语气来看,对那位名义上的夫君并没有感情........唔,她有时候也会在夜里发呆,表现出消极的,悲观的态度........是对无法反抗的命运绝望了？真是个悲惨的女人。 Xu Qi'an starts off in the dim light of night, finally gets out of trouble for a long time, stops in named „Refined Sound Building” the brothel entrance in the city. 许七安于夜色中上路,在城中兜兜转转许久,最后停在一家名叫“雅音楼”的青楼门口。 The preamble had said( Chapter 21), through the tail of brothel decorates can judge the specification that its, a second-rate brothel is primarily „institute, hall and pavilion”. 前文说过(第21章),通过青楼的尾缀可以判断它的规格,一二等青楼以“院、馆、阁”为主。 34 and other brothels many in the name of „building, class and shop”. 三四等青楼多以“楼、班、店”为名。 „Refined Sound Building” can only calculate that the inferior brothel, but in Sanhuang District like this small district seat, probably was the brothel of highest specification. “雅音楼”只能算中下等青楼,但在三黄县这样的小县城,大概是最高规格的青楼了。 Puts on the female of colored clothing silk skirt to welcome and see off in the entrance, happily chats peaceful/late peaceful/late. 穿彩衣罗裙的女子在门口迎来送往,言笑晏晏。 That Nightwatcher hidden piece, is the Refined Sound Building seafood merchant, the household register calls Cai'er. 那位打更人的暗子,是雅音楼的海鲜商人,花名叫采儿。 Nightwatcher hidden piece proliferates Great Feng, all sorts of people, what occupation has, so can collect the information all-around. 打更人的暗子遍布大奉,三教九流,什么职业都有,如此才能全方位的收集情报。 Before leaving capital, Wei Yuan gave a Xu Qi'an list, above has the Chu Province each region hidden piece contact way, the name, the material. 离开京城前,魏渊给了许七安一个名单,上面有楚州各地暗子的联络方式,姓名,资料。 „Yo, this master, inside please inside invite.” “呦,这位爷,里边请里边请。” The side just steps into the hall, the procuress welcomed, the sinister vision plundered the Xu Qi'an whole body, puts on ordinary, but the appearance is delicate and pretty. 方甫踏入堂内,就有一位老鸨迎了上来,毒辣的目光把许七安浑身搜刮了一遍,穿着普通,但容貌俊美无俦。 Appearance next, what is main is the purse of waist is swollen, excellent customer! 容貌还是其次,最主要的是腰间的荷包鼓胀胀,优质客户！ The procuress surface is warm, somewhat is actually cautious, because is not clear about the grade of opposite party, therefore the warm degree somewhat does not act bashful certainly, the fear provokes the guest carelessly. 老鸨表面热情,实则有些拘谨,因为不清楚对方的段位,所以热情程度有些拿捏不准,害怕不慎惹恼客人。 At this time, he saw Xu Qi'an to open the crook of the elbow. 这时,他看见许七安打开了臂弯。 In brothel, this is hints the procuress to hold the oneself arm, is intimate with. 在青楼里,这是示意老鸨抱自己胳膊,以示亲近。 Looked was the mellow color approves ......... the procuress to wipe the heavy powder face blooming smile, just like seeing family member, earnestly is pulling the arm of Xu Qi'an, pretty say/way: 一看就是老色批了.........老鸨抹着浓妆的脸绽放笑容,宛如看到了家人,热切的挽着许七安的胳膊,娇滴滴道: „Gentleman, you first here sits, drinks to meet the tea, the slave selects several good-looking elder sister to you .........” “官人,您先这边坐,喝会茶,奴家给你挑几个俊俏姐儿.........” The words have not said, Xu Qi'an waves to break, said: „I look for Cai'er.” 话没说完,许七安挥手打断,道:“我来找采儿。” „Aiya, you come unfortunately, Cai'er had the guest, did you have a look at other miss again?” The procuress smile is invariable. “哎呀,您来的不巧,采儿有客人了,您再看看别的姑娘？”老鸨笑容不变。 „I want Cai'er.” Xu Qi'an picks the purse, loses to the procuress. “我只要采儿。”许七安把荷包摘下来,丢给老鸨。 „This......” “这......” A procuress face awkward is leading on Xu Qi'an second floor, actually smiles to blossom at heart, compares white and shiny silver, what is the custom? 老鸨一脸为难的领着许七安上二楼,心里却笑开花,相比起白花花的银子,规矩算什么？ In the brothel, is the example to struggle a miss attacking brutally are too many, fighting is not the matter, at the worst goes out the bang of causing trouble. Naturally, what bang are few to money, or does not have the background. 青楼里,为争一个姑娘大打出手的例子太多,打架都不是事儿,大不了把闹事的轰出去。当然,轰的是给钱少的,或者没背景的。 Before two people arrive at a door, inside broadcasts the sound that the men and women handle matters, bed „creak” sound. 两人来到一间房门前,里面传来男女办事的声音,床榻“咯吱”的声音。 Xu Qi'an tramples the door, alarmed the men and women in room, sees only on the bed, an obese middle-aged man, presses on a pretty gorgeous female. 许七安一脚踹开房门,惊动了房间里的男女,只见床榻上,一个肥胖的中年男人,压在一位娇滴滴的艳丽女子身上。 Male complexion panic-stricken looks to the entrance, the wild with rage appearance that subsequently must kill people, loudly shouted: „Get lost.” 男子脸色惊恐的看向门口,继而一副要杀人的狂怒模样,大喝道:“滚出去。” Actually that gorgeous female, sees the delicate and pretty matchless young people, the eye fierce one bright. 倒是那艳丽女子,见到俊美无俦的年轻人,眼睛猛的一亮。 Do not be angry well ......., this matter, is a man will be angry.

Has passed to North to come, in expert eyes that knows the business truly, have I totally become the laughingstock? 真是的,到底是谁在吹我？都已经传到北境来了么,在真正懂行的高手眼里,我已经完全成为笑柄了吧？ „cough cough!” “咳咳！” He coughs, said: „Idle talk don't said that I asked you, how North, may have to have the major war recently.” 他咳嗽一声,道:“闲话莫说了,我问你,北境近来如何,可有发生大规模战争。” Cai'er shakes the head: „Barbarian Clan, although has the infringement border pass, but is the young stock cavalry grabs, east snatches a while, the west snatches a while. If there is a major war, the common people will run away toward south, that will pass by Sanhuang District inevitably, the slave does not know.” 采儿摇头:“蛮族虽有侵犯边关,但都是小股骑兵劫掠,东抢一会儿,西抢一会儿。如果有大规模战争,百姓会往南逃,那势必路过三黄县,奴家不会不知。” Xu Qi'an nods, asked: „Does each region have any unusual phenomenon, for example, suddenly has the large-scale population to be missing.” 许七安点头,又问:“各地有没有什么奇特现象,比如,突然有大规模人口失踪。” Cai'er is frowning, ponders the moment, said: „Slave has not collected the corresponding information ......., but, was reminded by you, the slave remembers a matter actually, is really strange.” 采儿皱着眉头,思考片刻,道:“奴家没有搜集到相应情报.......不过,经您提醒,奴家倒是想起一件事,甚是古怪。” The Xu Qi'an eyebrow raises, closely examines hastily: „What matter?” 许七安眉毛一扬,连忙追问:“什么事？” „ A while ago, the slave has received a guest, is a master who has the oneself caravan, he trades the cargo across Chu Province year to year. That liquor drank, he grumbled saying that Xikou Commandery and administered three counties, do not know why was blocked by the officers unexpectedly, the major road all sealed. “前阵子,奴家接待过一位客人,是一个拥有自己商队的老爷,他常年在楚州各地贩卖货物。那次酒喝多了,他发牢骚说,西口郡以及下辖三县,不知为何竟被官兵封锁,官道全封了。 „Also must he run a fruitless errand, a passer-by eats horse Jiao, owed several hundred taels of silver.” “还得他白跑一趟,一路人吃马嚼,亏了几百两银子呢。” The Xu Qi'an finger knocked the desktop, „where is Xikou Commandery at?” 许七安指头敲了敲桌面,“西口郡在哪？” Cai'er salutes saying: „You wait a bit.” 采儿施礼道:“您稍等。” She pulls out the box from the bed, the lowest level is a geomancy chart, takes out, unfolds on the table, points was saying somewhere: „Here is Xikou Commandery.” 她从床榻底下拉出箱子,最底层是一张堪舆图,取出,铺开在桌上,指着某处道:“这里便是西口郡。” Xikou Commandery in the Chu Province west, neighbor with the Western Territory Buddha Country domain, crossing Xikou Commandery is the Western Territory boundary, therefore acquires fame. 西口郡在楚州的最西边,与西域佛国地盘紧邻,过了西口郡就是西域地界,故而得名。 Xikou Commandery and north do not border on. 西口郡与北方并不接壤。 „Fighting is not not possible to project on that side, only if the north barbarian detours, but Western Territory Buddha Country will not encroach upon ......., since this, why can block Xikou Commandery?” “战不可能打到那边去,除非北方蛮子绕路,但西域佛国不会借道.......既然这样,为什么要封锁西口郡？” A bold guess appears in Xu Qi'an at heart. 一个大胆的猜测在许七安心里浮现。 He nods calmly, said: „What do you have to supplement?” 他不动声色的点头,说道:“你还有什么要补充？” Cai'er said: „Outside does not know, but the Sanhuang District defense capacity grew stronger actually much, before came and went out does not need the guide, now but actually checks was quite strict.” 采儿道:“外头不知道,但三黄县的防卫力量倒是增强了不少,以前出入不需路引,但现在却查的极为严格。” Xu Qi'an smiled: „Is the recent several days of matters?” 许七安笑了:“是不是最近几天的事儿？” Who knows Cai'er to shake the head, said: „A month ago so.” 谁知道采儿摇头,道:“一个月前就这般了。” hearing this, the Xu Qi'an brow wrinkles immediately. 闻言,许七安眉头顿时皱起。 ........... ...........
